Raheem Sterling Stuns Fans by Ranking Neymar and 3 Other Legends Above Cristiano Ronaldo!

Amongst the footballers, there has always been a debate on who ranks the highest, and Raheem Sterling has added his voice to this conversation. The 30-year-old England international, currently on loan at Arsenal from Chelsea, recently revealed his top five players of all time. Surprising many, he ranked Cristiano Ronaldo only fifth, placing the legendary Portuguese forward behind R9 (Ronaldo Nazário) at fourth. Lionel Messi secured the third spot, with Neymar taking second place. He said:

“Cristiano Ronaldo at fifth, which is mad. For me then, R9 [Ronaldo Nazario] four. Messi at three, Neymar [at two].Ronaldinho [was my idol]. That's who I... if you saw my history on YouTube, I think I've watched every single clip of his playing career. That was the player I used to go in the garden and try to recreate, which I could have never done. I tried it to the best of my ability but he was so special. What I really like about Neymar is every time he loses the ball, or tries something, he goes again. He doesn’t get disheartened. He has that winner’s mentality.”
